Horses keep disappearing, lots of errors and kicking me off to the world screen.

Whenever I try to play with Horses, they disappear from the game. They show up in CAS just fine but when loading into the world, they disappear and it kicks me off to the world screen giving a Error:102. 

I tried the 50/50 method of removing mods and cc. To no avail.
I removed ALL mods eventually, to no avail.
I tried doing a clean documents folder (by moving my sims documents to somewhere else and letting the game regenerate a new one) to no avail.
I tried repairing the game, and as usual, to no avail.

The last exception says something like ''[cjiang] Error occurred within the tag named 'require_reins_for_formation' (value: r)''
I have no idea what that means.

The Last Exception Assistant says: "Missing Expansion Resource Error.'' 
What does that mean? I have all packs installed. Just checked. 

I've been at this trying to troubleshoot it for 5 hours and I'm getting tired. 


  • Yes it happened in a new save with no mods and previous saves installed as well. I didn't catch the full 102 error but I narrowed the problem down to the horses themselves. If I play any household without horses everything worked fine, even with mods. As soon as I added a horse or loaded in with one then the problem arose again. 

    But I finally fixed the issue. 
    The Missing Resource Error gave me an inkling that Horse Ranch didn't install correctly. I uninstalled Horse Ranch and installed it again. And yup, everything works again. Even with my previous saves and mods (all updated) put back in.

  • @toreshinbo You got the same error on the new save game with nothing put back ?
    What's the full 102 you're getting ? Do you get that on a new save too ?

    I have the opposite problem. My NPC's horses don't die. Duke Gooseman has died 10 times in the same file, but he's not in his household and there's no grave. I use MC Command Center and always update it, but the horses still don't actually die. They just vanish from households who have horses.
